About MakerCase

MakerCase is a web-based application for designing laser-cut project cases.

Makercase runs in a web browser and automatically generates a blueprint for laser cutting based on the users specifications. The user enters the desired case dimensions and material thickness, and MakerCase automatically generates a three-dimensional model of the case that can be freely rotated.

Users can also add holes and engraved text to individual faces of the case using a graphical drag and drop editor.

When the case design is complete, the MakerCase flattens the three-dimensional model into blueprint and generates an SVG file that can be sent directly to a laser cutter. For cutting, MakerCase can be configured to compensate for the beam width of the laser and convert any engraved text into vector paths.

Makercase was written in 100% javascript, using jquery, three.js, and JCanvas on the client side and node.js on the server. More information on writing digital fabrication applications may be found at my web site .
